Subject: New Implementation of KERMIT for IBM PC under UCSD p-System
This implementation of KERMIT for the IBM PC p-System was submitted by Kate
MacGregor and Steve Pacenka of Cornell University Computing Services. It
requires version IV.x of the UCSD p-System, and is also intended to be
transferrable to other computers that run the same level of the p-System.
It was developed on the IBM PC using NCI release C1F.
The files are in KER:UCIBMPC.*. The Pascal source files are concatenated
together into the file KER:UCIBMPC.PAS; there are also .DOC and .HLP files.
The other UCSD Pascal Kermit from Cornell (the one for the Terak) has been
reorganized along similar lines, as KER:UCTERAK.*.

This is to announce the arrival of Kermit for the UCSD p-System, written
by Kate MacGregor of Cornell University Computing Services. The program
is written modularly, to allow it to be brought up on any machine under
the p-System by supplying some machine-dependent assembly language
procedures. The implementation we have now is for the Terak, an LSI-11/2
based machine. The relevent source files are in KER:UC*.* at host
COLUMBIA-20, accessible via anonymous FTP. First read UCSD.HLP, which
explains how the files were renamed to fit in the KERMIT distribution
area. UCKERM.HLP contains user documentation and installation instructions.
Work is in progress at Cornell on an implementation for the IBM PC p-System.
If anyone wants to bring up Kermit on some new machine, not under the
p-System, but which has Pascal, this might be a good base from which to
start. I don't know how close UCSD Pascal is to ISO Pascal, but if they
are not fatally incompatible, it may be possible to adapt this version to
any system by merely filling in the system-dependent routines.
